Norwegian gothic/industrial metal act Gothminister has, after finishing in fourth place with "We Come Alive" in the Norwegian Melodi Grand Prix (MGP), presented a new single/video, "One Dark Happy Nation", again shouting the message: Cherish the art of being different. The song is from its impending album, Pandemonium II: The Battle Of The Underworlds, slated for a release on 3 May via AFM Records on limited clear vinyl, CD-Digipak and digital formats.
Bjørn Alexander Brem comments: "It feels great coming back from the Norwegian leg of the Eurovision competition where I challenged the whole commercial scene with the Gothminister darkness. And I think they liked it:) After having performed on Norwegian in front of almost 1 million tv viewers preaching the message of darkness - what can be more logical for Gothminister than to continue this mission with this new single called 'One Dark Happy Nation'".
